AMD Ryzen 3 2200U vs Intel Core i5-4210M

Ryzen 3 2200U vs Core i5-4210M benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 2200U beats the Core i5-4210M in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4210M in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4210M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 2200U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 2200U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 2200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4210M CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
